Crested Butte News published an article this week called  ’State of the Backcountry’ written by Mike Horn (frequent contributor to Backcountry Magazine) featuring some of CBMG’s local heroes (namely Alan and Jayson).  It emphasizes the delicate state of our backcountry conditions, something that’s pretty common for our Colorado snowpack.  It also suggests one of the best things you can do for you (and your friends) is educate yourself in the latest in backcountry travel techniques and avalanche rescue by taking an AIARE Avalanche Course.  If it’s been a while since you’ve taken a course, our Avalanche Refresher Course is a great way to get those skills brought back to the forefront of your mind in a concentrated one day format. Click here to see the whole article from the News and what Jayson keeps in his backcountry ski pack.
